fly and wait

[Falcrack]

Many times, when I want to order a ship to fly to a particular location, I want them to immediately begin with their default behavior, such as distribute wares, autotrade, automine, etc. But, when I give the "fly to" command, the command the ship receives is "fly and wait". This means that I have to babysit these ships to stop them from waiting and get them started on their task. IMO, "fly to" commands should not include a "wait" component, the ship should simply fly to the location, then do whatever comes next command queue or it's default behavior.

+1 to that.

For now, a workaround is to queue up a typical order of their default behavior after the "fly to" order.
If nothing fits, "revisit known stations" or "collect loot" usually does it for me.

Hello,

This post was a long time ago now, is there any news for a "fly and live your life" now?
